MySQL Workbench for Linux

Since I use Ubuntu Linux on my desktop for day to day development, I am always looking for good Linux desktop software technical tools to add to my toolkit. One of the categories that has lagged behind Windows is in database modeling and management. There are some freeware tools, but nothing that provides the features I need.

Fortunately, MySQL has released the MySQL Workbench for Windows, MacOS, and Linux.  There are community (read: free) and commercial editions of the product available. The community edition provides reverse and forward engineering of a model to a MySQL database and has a "sync with model" feature that is great. I have just finished porting a model of the Colony application platform into MySQL Workbench. Kudos to the MySQL team for a good release.
